Goten-yama hill, Shinagawa on the Tokaido is a woodblock print by the Japanese ukiyo-e artist Hokusai. The thirty-seventh (first additional) print in Hokusai's series Thirty-six Views of Mount Fuji plus the ten additions. Shows people having a picnic as others stroll along paths through grove of cherry trees at blossom time at the Shinagawa station on the Tokaido Road. Mount Fuji is a frequent subject of Japanese art especially after 1600, when Edo (Tokyo) became the capital and people saw the mountain while traveling on the Tokaido road. Mount Fuji is an active stratovolcano located near the Pacific coast of Honshu and one of Japan's "Three Holy Mountains". The ukiyo-e genre of art flourished in Japan from the 17th through 19th centuries.
